For efficient data compilations a data warehouse is operated. Data descriptions are available through various protocols ( OAI-PMH , Web Catalog Service ). PANGAEA is hosted by the Alfred Wegener Institute, Helmholtz Centre for Polar and Marine Research (AWI), Bremerhaven and the MARUM – Center for Marine Environmental Sciences , Bremen in ...
(The data below does not seem to include shale oil and other unconventional sources of oil such as tar sands. For instance, North America has over 3 trillion barrels of shale oil reserves, [ citation needed ] and the majority of oil produced in the US is from shale, leading to the paradoxical data below that the US will finish all its oil at ...
Oil production of southeastern Saskatchewan emerges mainly from Mississippian rocks. Animated map from Pangaea to present. During the Pennsylvanian epoch 320-286 Ma of the Carboniferous period, Laurasia joined with Gondwana to become Pangea. This supercontinent rose above sea level, in an equatorial zone producing desert-like conditions. [21]
TGS, formerly TGS NOPEC Geophysical Company ASA [2] is an energy data and analytics company. It gathers, interprets, and markets seismic and geophysical data regarding subsurface terrains worldwide in order to evaluate oil and gas formations for drilling operations. [3]
Pangea began to break up about 220 million years ago, in the early Mesozoic (late Triassic period). As Pangea rifted apart a new passive tectonic margin was born, and the forces that created the Appalachian, Ouachita, and Marathon Mountains were stilled. Weathering and erosion prevailed, and the mountains began to wear away.
A few deep wells were drilled to explore for oil and gas in rift rocks as far southwest as Kansas. No oil and gas were found, but the explorations did make some deep rock samples available. [ 13 ] These include two "dry holes" drilled by Amoco : a 7,238 ft (2,206 m) well in Alger County, Michigan in 1987 and 1988, and one in Bayfield County ...
Growing demand by data centers will also benefit the company's large-scale gas transmission business (its pipelines deliver 20% of the gas consumed in North America each day). Ebel discussed the ...
